For the Listening, what did people put for the publicity exercise for les produits alimentaires and the final one in that section?

Also which boxes did you TICK(!) (it had a symbol this times:P) for the final exercise on fashion?

cant remember which 1s i ticked but i dont think they mentioned anything about french people so i didnt tick those two boxes?

How did your oral go?

Was the internet question 10b, btw?

Did anyone else finish the listening, reading and grammar sections in like under 25 minutes? 1hr35 for an essay and checking is quite relaxing.

I finished listening, reading and grammar sections in 30 mins.
and then I spent ages doing writing which took me 45
then i redid the listening and looked over a few exercises where I'd left a gap (that tattoo exercise :|) and then counted up my words for my written section

I thought it was very easy (yes, the grade boundaries might be higher, although my friend keeps waffling on about how they're always the same. Lol, no.)

The listening was GREAT. <3
Reading was fine.
INTERNET. <3

SO much more easy than the German. I mean, they even had a little picture of the tick for goodness sake. :P

(I'm in Year 13 but resat this paper to shift the grade up... it's the old AS syllabus, which is far worse).

Did you find the January Paper easier or harder?

For an A it was 83/110. Shame that wasn't for German!

I have no idea how long it took - I couldn't see the clock from where I was sitting and only realised in the last 5 minutes that there was one behind me - but I got onto the essay REALLY early. xD I had to ask for more paper though, because I ran out of space... I did the friendship question, I'm not too happy about Internet.
